RSS ((Rich Site Summary, RDF Site Summary, or Really Simple Syndication) is an XML-based format for sharing and distributing Web content, such as news headlines for use in news readers and Web logs (blogs).

Why should I use it?

Using an RSS reader, you can view data feeds from various news sources, such as Ynetnews.com, including headlines, summaries, and links to full stories. These feeds include headlines, summaries and links back to Ynetnews.com for the full article. Ynetnews RSS feeds are free, and Ynetnews.com currently uses RSS 2.0. RSS brings your favorite Web content to you in a format that lets you choose to read what you want, when you want.

RSS News Aggregators (also called Readers) will download and display RSS feeds for you. A number of free and commercial News Aggregators are available for download (See below for links).

Some aggregators are separate, "stand-alone" programs; other services let you add RSS feeds to a Web page.

Blogs: Another way many people use RSS feeds is by incorporating content into blogs. Blogs are web pages comprising frequently updated items and web links.
